4 8's sealed or 2 8's ported

[t-scene 10+ year member]

I'm working on putting a system together for my truck. I was wondering what would have the best results? The box dimensions will give me about 1 cube ported for 2 8's or I can go a little wider with the box by a couple and inches and gain 1 cube sealed for 4 8's

I want the most bang for my buck I'm thinking SD 8's or something custom.

1 cube each or altogether?

1 cube for the whole box

4 sealed, and i would go with the sundwon sd's or maybe wait for soundqubed 8's to come out depending on money.

i got 2 AB xds in 1.87 ported and its nasty..... good 8's louder than my sa8v1's.... thats a hard call the four sealed will be louder but the ported would be deeper...

surprising for a 8... tuned to 32hz.... those two 8's on both the vfl hybrid 1880 and aq1200 and brz1700..... were louder and way better sounding than my 1 obsidian 12v2 on a vfl 120.1 and thats saying something cuz i loved my obsidians v2's...

 

[basswiigee]

8's i would put over the xd's....

vfl's

soundqubeds new 8

sundown 8v2

any custom one... lol

and few others but those subs are almost double the price of the xd's....

Just wondering how did you like the AB Vfl 1880? Do you think it's powerful enough for 2 vfl8's?

listen at 1ohm that amp is a little beast!!! at 2ohms it blows... I liked it though and it slammed the 2 ab xd 8s very nice!!! Id recommend for anybody looking for a powerful tiny amp.. and yes tiny!!! like the size of a dvd case... example from my private collection... lol

Man it is tiny lol the internals look strong. I just figured I would ask Ive never seen one in action.
